2047 78th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 2047 78th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Jing Lei and constructed in 1924, has experienced several notable administrative and compliance events over recent years. Most significantly, there have been two Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021 and 2023 regarding the required annual bedbug report filings, though these violations were subsequently closed.

However, the building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance, with all annual filings between 2019 and 2024 indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management practices since the reporting violations were resolved. In terms of other building-related incidents, there was a complaint filed in May 2023 regarding an alleged illegal conversion at the property, which was formally investigated on July 29, 2024.

However, the Department of Buildings inspector was unable to gain access during the second and final inspection attempt, leaving the investigation unresolved. It's worth noting that the bedbug reporting system implemented by the city requires meticulous record-keeping, and the consistent zero infestation reports over multiple years, combined with the eventual resolution of the bedbug reporting violations, suggests that the building has maintained a generally sound approach to pest management and compliance with city regulations.
